3rd Gen Which starter did you choose?

I selected Squirtle for Fire Red and Mudkip for Sapphire. I always choose the Water starter.
 
Water type starters ftw! :P In Sapphire and Firered I chose Mudkip and Squirtle as my starting Pokemon respectively. As I've mentioned in the other "which starter Pokemon did you chose?" threads, I always choose the Water type starter for my first and main game because they entice me the most.
 
Since playing first time round I'm always swapping whenever I replay them but my main favourites still remain at Squirtle & Torchic.
 
torchic, as blaziken irl and the game would kick swampert and sceptile buts. And squirtle, cause blastoise is a a bigg turtle with giant cannons on his back!
 
Bulbasaur was the first choice, since I love grass Pokemon. This was in LG. In FR, I obviously chose Charmander; well, because I wanted to try something different.
 
Oh goodness, well, I know I got LeafGreen and chose Bulbasaur (since I chose Charmander the first time in Red/Blue, I wanted to switch it up). I can't remember if I chose Torchic or Mudkip in my Sapphire version. I know I didn't get it until a while after it came out, and because of that I know I was impressionable because I didn't get it until after the anime started airing. I think, since I liked Torchic in the anime, I chose Torchic for my first run-through. Then I chose Mudkip because I liked it better in my second and all consecutive playthroughs.
 
I chose Charmander in FireRed and Torchic in Emerald because I really like Fire-type Pokémon and they're over powered from early game to late game. They have advantages in gyms compared to Grass- and Water-type Pokémon so completing game is little faster. Before Torchic I chose Treeco and Mudkip in previous saves but then realized how good Blaziken can be with it's burning attacks.
 
I choose Squirtle and Treecko, though Mudkips not bad either.
 
Charmander and Torchic! Fire and dragon types are my favorite and since there is no dragon starter I chose the fire type. I love fire types!
 
Mudkip on Sapphire, Torchic on Ruby, Treecko on Emerald, Charmander/Bulbasaur on Fire Red, and Squirtle on Leaf Green lol.
 
I flip flop between Mudkip and Torchic, Squirtle and Bulbasaur. I like more of the bulkier Pokemon than anything. I like Charmander and Treecko, I'd just rather the other four.
 
In all my Hoenn games (my Ruby and my brother's Sapphire and Emerald) I chose Mudkip cos it's the easiest to use throughout the game plus I love Water-types.
 
I chose water type starters in all of my games. They have a great endurance while maintaining a good offense.
